Cleveland BioLabs is developing a pipeline of products for multiple defense
and medical applications from two primary families of compounds: Protectans
and Curaxins. Protectans are being developed as drug candidates that
protect normal tissues from acute stresses such as radiation and
chemotherapy. Curaxins are being developed as anticancer agents that could
act as mono-therapy drugs or in combination with other existing anticancer
agents.
The Company recently announced the opening of enrollment for the second
human safety study for CBLB502, a drug under development for the treatment
of Acute Radiation Syndrome (ARS).
CBLB502 is being developed by Cleveland BioLabs under the U.S. Food and
Drug Administration's Animal Efficacy Rule to treat Acute Radiation
Syndrome (ARS) or radiation poisoning from any exposure to radiation such
as a nuclear or radiological weapon / dirty bomb, or from a nuclear
accident. This approval pathway requires demonstration of efficacy in
representative animal models and safety and drug metabolism testing in
healthy human volunteers.
